UPDATE: EAST LANSING - On July 12, the Mega Bus will be coming to East Lansing. The double decker buses will pick up customers three times daily at the East Lansing Amtrak station.

"It was really nice, it was really easy. To order your ticket from the website, and it was really cheap. It wasn't that busy either." Says Okemos High School Student, Nick Schekel, who rode the bus from Wisconsin to Chicago for only five dollars.

The buses also provide free wifi, power outlets and restrooms. Tickets, which run as low as one dollar each way can be booked at megabus.com.
